American Remake of Downton Abbey

Downton Abbey is like crack for women. I’m nto entirely sure why, except for the fact that it’s a historical soap opera. Going back to the work of Jane Austen (which wasn’t historical at the time, grant you) those have always been popular with women, so I assume any historical piece would work.

I’m still holding out for the Biblical time period romance, but the HBO series Rome may be the closest we get to that.
